Do you have any tips for my flight to San Jose?

  • Get your trip off to a flying start by being prepared. Pack the important stuff — like travel documents, your passport and any medications you need — first. After that, consider downloading a few blockbuster movies on your tablet or phone for a guiltless binge session. Or, toss in that thrilling bestseller you’ve been saving for a rainy day. Lastly, a few tasty snacks and a good-quality neck pillow will go a long way to making your flight as comfortable as possible.
  • Remember that there’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which can differ between carriers and flight routes. As a general rule, avoid packing anything sharp, explosive or flammable. This includes things like pocket knives, razor blades, flares and aerosol cans. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, ski poles and objects that could harm passengers, such as batons and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort instead of fashion when flying. Dress in layers and wear natural fabrics since they allow moisture and air to pass through and keep you cool. Cabins can get colder on longer flights, so bring a hoodie or similar and always wear sneakers or enclosed shoes.
  • Reduce your risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition which can be caused by sitting for long periods of time, by regularly walking around the cabin. Otherwise, do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat. If you’re at higher risk of developing DVT, consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Finding a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to San Jose is as easy as having some flexibility with your travel plans. Have some leeway when it comes to your choice of carrier, travel dates and flight times.

Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
